Ex-White House Official On Benghazi: 'Dude, This Was Like Two Years Ago'

This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every persons position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the FAQ and RULES.

Progressives are incapable of judging their own "leaders" or questioning their own political philosophy.

I almost gave this a "like" but, for that, you must change Progressives to either party loyalists or politicians because this behavior is not limited to a single party or political lean.

Was it to the press secretaries telling the President, The Secretary of State, and the Ambassador to the UN what to say? Is it Ben Rhodes who should be explaining to the American people what happened during a time of crisis?

The best accounting we have now is that the president told "you guys can handle it", and ducked and ran to where ever. If you know more, a large portion of this country would like to know your inside wisdom. Otherwise, just sit in southern England and wish you had what you once did.

If the conspiracy theorists here had any respect for law and order, then Oliver North would still be breaking rocks somewhere secure.
